[The City Twice Lost] The Rusty Gaol

[shepsquared]

I forgot to say that you were approved. Go ahead and post; you are the graceful 'half-elf' next to the tiefling, who you know as One-Horn. He has extensive back alley political connections and is hiring you and others for something involving one of them. you've been in the bar for about an hour now, and One-Horn is buying.

 

[Silent Wayfarer]

Eek, I didn't know this had started (why doesn't anyone tell me these things ;o; )


I'm in. How should I jump in?

 

[shepsquared]

You're part of the main group, you just haven't talked yet. (Same with @Exthalion, but he's by the tiefling)

 

[Silent Wayfarer]

Schweet. Now I just need to figure out how to introduce myself. Blocking at the moment.

 

[Exthalion]

Thank you!

 

[Sherwood]

Grond is not trying to be difficult; he's just Chaotic Good.

 

[SephirothSage]

And Nathaniel is just True Practical!

 

[WarDragon]

Grond is not trying to be difficult; he's just Chaotic Good.

And Solomon's Lawful Neutral, and follows a god who commands him to obey the local laws. Could be tricky...

 

[Sherwood]

We'll make it work. I just want to make sure that I'm playing my character according to his alignment.

 

[shepsquared]

If that's how you chose to define yourself, its cool. In practice it doesn't matter too much, unless your class makes it important or you spend a lot of time around paladins and the like.

 

[WarDragon]

Isn't Inquisitor basically a paladin who's allowed to get his hands dirty?

 

[shepsquared]

Sort of, yeah

 

[SephirothSage]

It's kinda like a paladin- but they come in every alignment.

 

[shepsquared]

Weirdly enough, they tend towards the spanish persuasion. No clue why

 

[WarDragon]

So yeah... I was afraid of this. I wish I'd known our first quest would be going against a local government... would have picked a different god.

 

[SephirothSage]

.. So is Slavery actively protected by the law, or just not outlawed? If the Later, I can have Nathaniel start bluffing like it's Nixon Time.

Depends on who's paying the bribes.

I have 3-4 other quests I can toss at you, this one was just easiest for a group who just arrived in the area.

Well, if that's the case, a bit of clarification might help. If the laws are that loose, clearly it can't be called civilization at all, and I can proceed with a clear conscience.

 

[shepsquared]

There are no laws against slavery; your crime is theft of another man's property. That said, there are no laws saying that freeing slaves is illegal either or that it is illegal for a slave to run away. It generally comes down to who has the most money and/or muscle.

 

[shepsquared]

@Exthalion I need you to start posting. Or you're out of the game.

 

[SephirothSage]

Hey. I apologized /ahead/ of time, for the Wizard being a Dick.

 

[Exthalion]

Reminds me a little of Raistlin personally.

 

[SephirothSage]

Raistlin was the main inspiration.

 

[Sherwood]

"Look Raist. Bunnies!"

 

[SephirothSage]

.... *Sniff*


That trilogy, the one after the Main Dragonlance books, with Caramon and Raistlin. Made me cry. Several times.
